Police arrest burglar inside Athens home

A witness called 911 at about 1:25 p.m. to report the man had pushed in a neighbor's window air conditioner and climbed inside, according to police.

Terrance Malloy Ford, of 140 Creekwood Drive, still was in the residence when officers arrived, and he was charged with burglary, criminal trespass, giving false information and possession of drug-related objects, police said.

Officers found a crack pipe in a bedroom that scorched a mattress, police said.
